Where to break into IB with little relevant experience
I would say that I am in a peculiar situation for just about any finance role after college. Let me start out by saying I play a collegiate sport and have never been able to do an internship until last summer because I basically told my coaches that I will not comeback for my last year if I can’t gain some work experience. I ended up succeeding in my negotiations and was able to work as an investment analyst at a financial advisory firm. I really enjoyed it but wanted something a little more challenging and fast paced. I am currently in my 5th year of college getting my MBA (which doesn’t end until August 2026) with a specialization in Fintech. Over the past year I have become obsessed with breaking into IB for several reasons, and I am asking the community for any advice at all. I have done about 20 calls with about 15 individuals being in the IB industry, I have completed the Adventis FMC and passed the SIE in 3 weeks on the first try. I am very well driven but am looking for some guidance on how to stand out and where/when to apply for a role starting after August.
